Organiser's Description

--- This event has been cancelled due to ongoing concerns regarding Coronavirus. The race organiser will be in touch with you in due course if you have made a booking for this event. ---

Join us as we celebrate London's long-term thirst for gin on a fun 10k running tour of the Capital. We'll stop at places that are key to London's thirsty history with the juniper-flavoured stuff, and play gin-themed games along the route.

The tour runs on a number of dates between March and October, with various paces available, and each has a pace guide to keep you in your comfort zone. This tour is half walk/half run with short intervals of gentle jogging mixed in with walking.

Running is thirsty work, and everyone enjoys a well deserved gin and tonic or gin cocktail at the end from an authentic gin palace.

Run Speed

Half walk. Half gentle jogging. For those who are building up to 10k, or don't run very often.

Paces are a guide. All runners (usually about 15) on the tour run at the same pace behind the tour guide. The guide will run at the pace of the slowest runner - we don't leave anyone behind. But it is difficult to accommodate your pace if it is wildly slower than the pace you and the rest of the runners on your tour have signed up for.

If you usually run faster than the pace you've signed up, please be prepared to run at the pace of the tour to make the rest of the runners feel comfortable.

Don't worry - you'll stop for breathers as we unravel 3000 years of gin-related history and play games along the way.
